Abstract: In a semiconductor memory, a refresh signal is
generated by a refresh signal generating circuit (2),
and a refresh operation is performed in a memory cell
array (8) based on the refresh signal. Parity is
generated by a parity generating circuit (6) when data
is written, and the generated parity is stored. When
the refresh operation and a usual data read or write
operation are overlapped on each other, data in a
memory cell, of the memory cell array (8), which cannot
be read because the refresh operation is given
priority, is determined based on the parity. Data which
cannot be written because the refresh operation is
given priority is held temporarily in a write data
buffer (4). When the refresh operation is not
overlapped on the usual data read or write operation,
the data held in the write data buffer (4) is rewritten
in a corresponding memory cell of the memory cell array
(8).

Abstract: The solder paste printing method of the present
invention mounts a solder paste containing therein as a
solder material a Sn-Zn system solder on a mask, and urges
the solder paste to make rolling over the mask from one end
thereof toward the opposite thereof by means of a squeegee
to thereby fill the solder paste into apertures formed in
the mask. At this time, by maintaining moisture contained in
the atmosphere surrounding the solder paste at a value equal
to or less than a predetermined value, as the solder paste
is suppressed from causing an increase in the viscosity
thereof due to the reaction with the moisture in the
surrounding atmosphere during the solder paste printing
process, the rolling ability of the solder paste during the
printing process can be kept, and attachment of the solder
paste to the squeegee can be prevented.

Abstract: A system for controlling use and distribution of digital works. The present invention
allows the owner of a digital work to attach usage rights (1450) to their work. The usage rights
define how the individual digital work may be used and distributed (1451). Instances of usage
rights are defined using a flexible and extensible usage rights grammar. Conceptually, a right
in the usage rights grammar is a label associated with a predetermined behavior and conditions
to exercising the right. The behavior of a usage right is embodied in a predetermined set
(1452) of usage transactions steps. The usage transaction steps further check all conditions
(1453-1457) which must be satisfied before the right may be exercised. These usage transaction
steps define a protocol for requesting the exercise of a right and the carrying out of a right.

Abstract: A system is disclosed for monitoring the use of
water in an individual unit of a multi-unit building
wherein the multi-unit building is supplied water
from a common source (10) and the individual unit has a
plurality of water consuming structures each supplied
by one or a pair of water pipes (15) supplied from the
common source. A monitor (19) determines the volumetric
flow through each of the pipes, each of said monitors,
and periodically transmits a signal encoded with the
volumetric flow of the pipe and the identification of
the individual unit in which the pipe is located. A
remote receiver receives the encoded signals from
each of the monitors and computes a total volumetric
flow of water for the individual unit for a selected
period of time. Additionally, continuous volumetric
flow through the pipe proximate the water consuming
structure during a predetermined period of time can
be predetermined time so that an alarm signal can be
transmitted in the event that it is determined that
flow to the water consuming structure has been
continuous for the predetermined time. The use of
heat energy in the water devices can be monitored to
define the heat energy use. The remote receiver
receives the encoded signals from each of the
monitors, defines a total volumetric flow of water
and /or total heat energy use for the individual unit
for a selected period of time, computes a water
consumption/heat energy charge and prepares and
forwards a bill to the individual unit.
